In the push, pull, and pop helpers operating on skmsg objects to make
data writable or insert/remove data we use this bounds check to ensure
specified data is valid,
/* Bounds checks: start and pop must be inside message */
if (start >= offset + l || last >= msg->sg.size)
return -EINVAL;
The problem here is offset has already included the length of the
current element the 'l' above. So start could be past the end of
the scatterlist element in the case where start also points into an
offset on the last skmsg element.
To fix do the accounting slightly different by adding the length of
the previous entry to offset at the start of the iteration. And
ensure its initialized to zero so that the first iteration does
nothing.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
